The Awesome Life List

One (awesome) person I follow on here, called Whimsical Youngster, started up something called "The Awesome Life List". Whenever you feel down, or if you just wanna be more positive, you list all the things that make your life... Well, awesome. So I decided to give it a try, since I can often be a Negative Nelly at times!



Why my life is awesome:


  • My awesome mother. She is so supportive and sweet, and is basically my best friend. She's hilarious, yet understanding and nurturing. Without her, I wouldn't be half of who I am today. She's helped make me become a more understanding and, over all, better person.
  • The rest of my family. My brother has kind of helped me be a bit of a tomboy, haha, and we can talk about some stuff together, even though we sometimes fight a lot. I'm not too-too close to my Dad, but I still love him a lot, even if he can be a jerk at times.
  • Anime. I'm not into it anymore, but it shaped me into who I am, even if some of it I shouldn't have seen. Even if it was unhealthy, too. It made me more artistic and a better writer, and helped me realize that I can like things, but they should remain strictly a hobby, not a lifestyle.
  • Video games as well. Like I said about anime, some things I shouldn't have seen. But others, like for example, the game "The Last of Us", have really inspired me to write. Maybe even to write for the gaming industry. Also, I've made some friends through gaming (IRL friends though).
  • Music. I'm not too big into it as of now, since I'm having trouble finding good music, but right now I'm really grooving on The Arctic Monkeys. Anyhow, music has inspired me to sing more, and some people (like P!NK and Michael Jackson) have helped me find a writing style for music.
  • My past friends have also made my life awesome. Not all of them were that good to me, but they've made me realize I need to take friends as only a "fun" thing, not a serious, lets-talk-about-our-feelings thing.
  • Oh, and books of course! They've made me a much more imaginative and creative person, and probably a bit smarter too. Also, they're really fun to read and are a very good, healthy escape for me now!
That's it for now! Maybe I'll come back and edit it later?

  1. I totally agree with books! I love how I can delve inside a story, have an adventure and become a different person for a while, all in the comforts of my own home. And I do agree with friends. It's true that some friends may not be meant to be our besties, but there are also friends who you can really trust, although in my experience, there are only a handful you can find.
    Thanks for joining ^^

    1. Books are awesome! Although I'm really picky with what I read... and I prefer actual books than ebooks, I just like the feeling and smell of the papers.. I'm weird I guess haha :D. And yes, exactly. I've had trouble finding any friends worth it, although I do have one that I think is good. And no problemo :)!
